Any clouds that might linger in the sky on Sunday morning should clear up by the afternoon, forecasters say.
Temperatures should reach the mid to upper 80s, while lows are expected to be around the 70s at night, the National Weather Service said.
But the drier conditions might not last Monday and Tuesday, with possible rain and thunderstorms in the area, the weather service said. Temperatures are expected to climb into the 80s on both days.
"Most of the day on Monday is dry. We have another fairly high likelihood of showers and thunderstorms Monday night and then just a chance, again, on Tuesday," said David Stark, a meteorologist with the weather service.
Wednesday and Thursday should not see rain, but it is possible Friday. Temperatures for those three days will be in the low to mid-80s.
"At least for those three days, right now our forecast is mostly dry," Stark said. "Just a … very slim chance of a shower on Friday."
